Stopping idle session timeout


This is actually an xubuntu question, butr how do I stop the sesion idle timeout. Sometimes I listen to a stream, but not using the computer, and the session timeout. I re-logon and it starts up again of course, but i don't want to have to keep re-logging i.

So. how do I not timeout with no activity?

Exactly where and what option? I looked and found nothing that mentioned session timeout.
Plus, xubuntu uses xfce, not gnome.
